This chart in words

The chart plots daily Reddit mentions of FAST over the 30 days to 20 October 2026: 5 in total, busiest on 11 October with 1, and 1 on the last day counted. The line is the daily close over the same window: $50.70 on 5 October, $51.02 on 16 October. Of those days, 10 were trading sessions and the other 20 are hatched on the chart. On 4 of them no session took place, and the last close before it is carried forward rather than plotted; on 4 of them no session took place, and this window holds no earlier close to carry forward; on 12 of them we hold no close at all, which is a gap in our own record rather than a closure we can prove.
